What would survive on Earth if there was no oxygen?

Only plants would, but then they would exhale O2 so then we'd have O2 again.

O2=Oxgen

Now wait, how would we end up with an Oxygen-less atmosphere? I'd imagine that the process of replacing the atmosphere with something that isn't Oxygen would result in genetic mutations preferring lifeforms which breathe other things.

Unless we're talking about having no atmosphere at all, in which case only the Glorious Robot People of the Democratic Republic People's Free Union of Socialist Robots (DRPFUSR) would survive.

What is the value of a baseball autographed by Mickey Mantle Early Wynn Lefty Gomez Bob Feller Billy Herman and Ernie Banks?

In some cases a single signed baseball of a noted player is worth more than a multi signed baseball with the same player of note. In this case the Mickey Mantle signature would be the most valuable, and the key signature with the other Hall of Fame players on this baseball.

I would categorize this baseball as a "Mickey Mantle Multi signed Hall of Fame baseball" And this would be part of the explanation of why a Mickey Mantle single signed baseball would be more valuable than a Multi signed HOF baseball.

Value is based on the price collectors pay for an Item. There are more collectors of Mickey Mantle memorabilia, and his signature is more sought after than the other HOF'ers on this baseball. You have to treat this as two separate items. A Mickey Mantle single signed baseball, and a Multi signed baseball. There are less collectors of Hall of Fame multi signed signatures, than collectors of a Mickey Mantle signature. Therefor a Mickey Mantle Signed baseball will sell at a higher price.

A collector of a Mickey Mantle signed baseball might prefer the signature by itself, may not desire the other signatures, and will not pay extra for the others or just pay less for the less desired baseball. This is why you cannot add up the value of each signature to come up with a value.

A single signed Mickey Mantle Baseball is worth about $400..-$800. I checked an auction house for Mickey Mantle Multi signed baseballs and found 5 baseballs that sold between $131. - $896 averaging around $350. Of cause the signatures that appear on each baseball are different, and will effect the value, as well as the type of authenticity that accompanies the signatures, and condition. Which signature that appears on the "sweet spot" will also effect the value.

The baseball that sold for $896. was in great condition, strong signatures, PSA/DNA authenticated, and had the following signatures: Mantle, Herman, Spahn, Koufax, Sewell, Musial, Killebrew, Palmer, Berra, Banks, Marichal, Mays, Lemon, Aparicio, Ford, Aaron and Frank Robinson. With three signatures in common with your baseball with some similar signatures, but more.

Two Willie Mays, Mickey Mantle and Duke Snider Multi-Signed Baseballs. (NY center Fielders) very desired Willie Mickey and the Duke baseball sold for $334. and $448. This baseball with only three signature might be more desired than the baseball you have.

A Mickey Mantle, Wally Post, Ted Kluszewski, and Gus Bell, very sloppy condition sold for sold for $167 Your baseball should do much better that this, and based on the information from these auction I would say that your baseball if properly authenticated in excellent+ condition should be worth at least $350.-$500. signatures that are not authenticated could sell at half the market value or less.

If the signatures are not authenticated, and if you do not no the origin of the baseball, be sure that the signatures are hand signed, and not facsimile (stamped) signatures. For more info on facsimile signatures, and autographed baseballs read my newsletter "How Much is my autographed baseball" I will leave a couple of links below.

Where can you get a replica World Series ring?

I've seen multiple listings on eBay, but they can get sorta pricy...just do a deep Google search and let me know if you find a good place..i would also try like a custom jewelry website and I'm sure they can make one if you submit a picture of what you would like...

I ordered a Replica Ring from JOSTBALF several months ago. The ring was nice but did not have the inside engraving in it I ordered nor was the size correct. Ordered size 14, I rec'd size 10 at best. Ring cost $575.00. Spoke to the owner who was very nice and was told to send it back and they would take care of it. Three months later, they will not respond to my emails, voicemailbox is full, will not answer letters and website is gone. I guess Ive been scammed. Buyer beware of JOSTBALF and other online companies.

What object is the best to have signed by Sports players ball card etc?

Signatures will vary in price based on condition, the type of authenticity that accompanies the signature, the item signed, and how well the item displays the signature. The signature of a baseball player would be most preferred on a baseball. Baseballs are the most common, and preferred by collectors because of it's connection to the game, low cost, availability and it displays the signature well. The signed baseball represents the average price for a signature, and by deducting or adding from this price for the Item signed accordingly will give you a good idea on value. The lowest priced signed item would be for a "cut Signature." A cut signature is a signature on a piece of paper, or "cut" from a larger piece. Index cards are the next step up, and both sell at a fraction (about 10%-20%) the price of an autographed baseball. Autograph photos typically sell at about 40-60 percent the price of a baseball with bats, uniform Jersey's and equipment selling at a higher price due to the higher cost of the item, rarity and display.

I'm sure that the same would apply to other sports such as a Football or a hockey puck would be compatible with a baseball. Expensive Sports cards are not a good item to have signed.generally collectors of sports cards would rather have a card without the signature. The signature would be considered as a flaw in the condition of the card and will lower the value. A signed card could never receive a high grade like near/mint.

A collector of signatures will not always pay extra for the "collectible" card. The autograph collectors main concern is displaying the signature. You could devalue the price of the card, and get less for it. Even if the card has a low value. If the value goes up on the card, you will lose the added collectors value.

Once a collectible card is signed the value of the card dramatically goes down as a collectible. The card then becomes an Item to display the signature. The bulk of the value relies on the value of the signature of the player that signed the card, and how well the card displays the signature. A high valued card can add some value to the signature.

What is the value of an Emmitt Smith autographed picture?

A Babe Ruth autographed picture is worth about $3,500.- $5,000.

Price will vary based on condition, and the type of authenticity that accompanies the signature. Photo composition, and appeal will effect the price as well. Part of the value will be determined by how well the photo displays the signature, the type of ink used, and how it stands out in contrast to the photograph. Larger photos will sell for more.

The signature should be bold, strong, and stand out in contrast to the photo. A weak, and faded signature will sell for less. Most autographs in Ruth's day were signed with a fountain pen. A signature with the quotation marks around "Babe" typifies his pre-1928 autograph and will sell at a higher value.

Babe Ruth's signature is one of the most prized signatures in the hobby. Photos were not as readily available in the Babes day as they are today. Babe Ruth signed a lot of baseballs. Signed photos of the Babe are far more rare, and at times could compete in value of a signed baseball at $6,000. -$10,000.

In a few recent auctions a signed 3 x 5 photo sold for $5,377.50. a large 17 x 21 fountain pen signed photo with inscription sold for $23,900. The average photo sold for about $3,000. - $4,000.
